That said, the P-10/PA-10 seem to be built by their own rules, even down to the graphics.
I got some info from the owner. It was his mom's bike and she was born in 1962. The original wheels were Rigida textured chrome, with a pie plate. They are (and were) 27 inch.

This is probably a bike someone pieced together from varied components. Some high-end. Some not.
